Reach has a new home! Starting May 2nd, we meet at Northwest University. Learn more.
DNAs are 3-5 people of the same gender who meet regularly to read the Bible, pray, and point each other to Jesus. We understand that it can be challenging to be honest in a big group setting, which is why DNAs are the primary way we grow more like Jesus and care for those around us.
Here’s our best practices to keep it simple and have a great experience:
“When I went through cancer last year, the women in my DNA were the ones who helped and encouraged me... Being in a DNA has been very helpful to me. These women are the closest to me and know all about what’s going on in my life.”
– Kelli
“Before my DNA started meeting together, my walk with Jesus felt aimless...part of me wanted to remain complacent. My DNA inspires and challenges me to radically pursue Jesus with my whole heart, soul, mind, and strength. I’m not sure where I’d be without my DNA. If you’re unsure, I would encourage you to take the leap of faith. I promise it’ll be worth it.”
– Julian
“The time spent with my DNA has been some of the sweetest fellowship in my entire walk with God. If you want to accelerate your discipleship to Jesus you need to be in a DNA. We were designed to do this life together. If you want to do follow Jesus by yourself and on your own terms, reevaluate. I promise you that you need men and women in your life to encourage you, pray for you, and build you up. DNA has absolutely offered that to me, and been a place of healing and repentance.”
– Tommy
Make friends at Reach by joining a Group, serving with a Sunday Serve Team, and attending or hosting a Meet-up.
DNAs are self-started. The ball’s in your court. Invite some folks to join your DNA. It always feels good to be invited! Read our FAQs below for more info.
Pick a regular time and place that will be convenient for your DNA. Use DNA Guides to help jumpstart intentional conversations, and chekc out our FAQs for an idea of what DNAs look like.
If you would like to be in a DNA, we recommend your first step to be getting to know others at Reach by joining a Group. As you make friends at Reach in a Group, by serving with a Sunday Serve Team, and hosting or attending Meet-ups, you’ll find your people to grow together within a DNA.
If you are currently in a Group and desire to be in a DNA, talk to your Group leader about joining an existing DNA or starting a new one!
DNAs are groups of 3-5 people of the same gender who meet often to read the Bible, pray, and point each other to Jesus. While Groups exist for the purposes of community growth and fellowship, DNAs consist of believers who desire a deeper walk with Christ; DNAs make disciples who will then go on to make more disciples.
This nine-week guide will walk you through how to read the bible, pray, rest, and teach you a whole lot about Jesus.
